One by Harry Lauder
And while we're telling stories we might tell the one that the Scotsman, Sir Harry Lauder, has been telling recently.
Commenting on the fact that the world was hearing much about Jews these days; Sir Harry observed that he had been as¬ sociated with Jews for twenty-five years . )nd "they were the whitest men he had met." Then Sir Harry told the story of a Scotsman who went into a bar in the corner of which were gathered a number of Jews.
y Ordering a "pony" for which he paid,

dly, saying that he had worked for
,000 of them, and that he wished there (-ere 40,000 of them. ¦^ So consistent was the Sc'ot in his praise of the Jews that every Jew at the bar stood him a glass of whiskey, and when the Scot eventually staggered out all lit by the whiskey bought by the Jews, one of the Jews asked the barman who was the man who had just left. •¦
"Oh," said the barman, "he is the grave-digger out in the Jewish cemetery."
Well, we have told so many stories at the i'xpenjfi of the- Scotch-that we'll .for¬ give Sir Harry for his quid pro quo. Alexander Hamilton's Hebrew
Johaii Smertenko in his recently pub- Hshed life of Alexander Hamilton de¬ clares that Hamilton used to,boast that at the age of four he astounded his par¬ ents by. reciting the Ten Commandments in Hebrew,
Hamilton, we know, had a Jewish tutor in his infancy. And there has been a great deal of speculation as to whether or not his father was a Jew. Wfe know that his mother was first married to. a Jevv, but later she left him. Yet there has been some vague surmising that later she also lived with her former husband for some time.
Woodward and some others hold to the belief that there was a Jewish strain in Hamilton. Personally, I have never been convinced of it, but the vvhole paternity of the great American statesman is wrapped up in mystery.
Why She Wears /Em
That wasn't a had retort that Marleni: Dietrich, .she who prefers pants to skirts, made when she said that if Hitler can wear pants, she can.
No Labor Troubles Here ,
If I gave every reader of this column 3'couple of thousand guesses as to which business firm in New York has the most exemplary labor conditions, I dare say, they would all be wrong. I am con¬ vinced that I know—and it is none other, would you believe it, than the Ex-Lax company, over which that ardent lover of Hebraic culture, Mr. Israel Matz, prc- ; sides.
Why do I say this?
Because for one thing, every employee of that company gets an increase every year, and there has been no exception to this-rule in this era of depression.
Because, again, no, employee is ever fired, once he is hired. J
And because again, all- employees get a free lunch every noon. The negro car washer at this compaiiy, I am told, gets no less than tS2 weekly.
It is a little dangerous to write such items as this, as immediately there is a leap to the concTiision that it is just a bit of surreptitious publicity. Let me say that though I once met Mr. Matz. he wouldn't kno'w me from Adam, and it has been so many years sinpe I saw him that I doubt if I woulft Ifiiow him. Further, that I know nothing of his product, and have never used it. And still further, that I am quite sure from what I have heard about Israel Matz, that if he knew this was being written, he would seek to dissuade me from it.
